Jump to RecipeTo make the cranberry syrup, combine the cranberries, water, and sugar in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the cranberries burst and the mixture thickens, about 10 minutes. Strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing on the solids to extract all the liquid. Let cool.
In a pitcher, combine the cranberry syrup, orange juice, and champagne or prosecco. Stir gently to combine.
To serve, pour the Christmas mimosa mixture into champagne flutes and garnish with fresh cranberries and a sprig of rosemary. The rosemary not only adds a festive touch but also gives a subtle hint of flavor to the drink. Serve immediately and enjoy!

For a non-alcoholic version, simply substitute the champagne with sparkling cider or ginger ale. This is a great option for guests who do not drink alcohol or for a family-friendly holiday celebration.
